I am looking to develop a comprehensive online booking system to complement
my website where accommodation providers will be able to indicate room
availability for their property over 12 month period.
I am wondering if anyone has had experience in developing a similar system
and if so could they please point me in the right direction.
I am find with most of the structure where why I simply have a booking
register and count the number of bookings for a specific room type requested
across the dates requested and as long as the total number of bookings in
the bookings register is less than total number of available rooms of that
room type across those dates then clearly there is availability.
However !!!!
The main challenge is that the accommodation providers would be indicating
the number of rooms available for each specific room type their property has
eg 20 1 bedrooms for 1-7-04 22; 15 1 bedrooms for 2-7-04; 5 2 bedrooms for
1-7-04; 8 2 bedrooms for 2-7-04 etc etc.
The challenge is being able to determine that the availability does not over
lap in other words the 2 bedroom apartment being booked for say 5 days needs
to be sure that the specific apartment is vacant for each of the 5 days as
rather than it being vacant for 3 days and the other 2 days the room
available is in fact a different room requiring the guest to have to room
move during their stay, something that would not be an option.
I look forward to your comments and contributions in this matter.
Kind Regards
